I'm happy for Mack. No one can talk about him not winning a conference title anymore. And hopefully we'll be able to stop talking about how Texas hasn't won a national title since way back when.
I hope so, and I know Coach Brown hopes so.

I move around and play different golf courses. I just enjoy it.
